Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.‖―我們認(rèn)為這些真理是不言而喻的：人人生而平等，他們都從他們的造物主那里被賦予了某些不可剝奪的權(quán)利，包括生命權(quán)、自由權(quán)和追求幸福的權(quán)利。但是我們的共識(shí)是我們的起點(diǎn)，現(xiàn)在經(jīng)濟(jì)正處于復(fù)蘇期間，我們的十年的戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)也已經(jīng)結(jié)束了，我們的競(jìng)選也已經(jīng)將告尾聲，不管我沒有當(dāng)選，我聽到了你們的聲音，你們使我成為最好的。我還要感謝我的競(jìng)選團(tuán)隊(duì)和志愿者，他們是歷史上最棒的。感謝大家，上帝保佑美國(guó)。我們美國(guó)公民也必須在這個(gè)時(shí)候站出來。我還要感謝安，我一生的愛人。我相信我們有能力信守開國(guó)者們?cè)S下的諾言，信守這樣一種理念，那就是不管你是誰(shuí)，不管你來自哪里，不管你長(zhǎng)相如何，不管你愛著哪個(gè)地方，你所需要做的就是努力工作。今晚，我滿懷希望，因?yàn)槲乙呀?jīng)看到美國(guó)精神正在得以發(fā)揚(yáng)。一場(chǎng)漫長(zhǎng)的競(jìng)選現(xiàn)已落幕。不過，盡管我們存在這樣那樣的分歧，我們大多數(shù)人都對(duì)美國(guó)的未來有著某些共同的希望。但如果你曾經(jīng)有機(jī)會(huì)與參加我們集會(huì)的那些人以及高中體育館內(nèi)擠在隔離繩外的那些人攀談，或者看到那些在遠(yuǎn)離家鄉(xiāng)的偏遠(yuǎn)小縣的競(jìng)選辦公室內(nèi)加班工作的人，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)一些別的東西。從喬治到勒諾到他們的兒子米特，羅姆尼家族選擇了通過公共服務(wù)來回報(bào)美國(guó)，那是一種我們今夜表示敬重和贊許的遺產(chǎn)。無(wú)論你是到投票站投票還是發(fā)傳真投票，無(wú)論你選的是奧巴馬還是羅姆尼，你都讓別人聽到了自己的聲音，你都讓美國(guó)因你而不同。你們鼓舞著我走完整個(gè)選舉過程，我對(duì)你們所做的每件事、你們所做的每項(xiàng)不可思議的工作將一直充滿感激。今晚過后，這都不會(huì)改變，也不應(yīng)該改變。不過，這一共同的紐帶是我們必須開始的地方。真正讓美國(guó)與眾不同的，是將這個(gè)地球上最多元化的國(guó)家的人民團(tuán)結(jié)到一起的那些紐帶。我所說的并非盲目的樂觀主義，不是那種看不到眼前的任務(wù)有多么艱巨、看不到前行的路上有什么樣的障礙的希望；我所說的并非作壁上觀或是臨戰(zhàn)退縮的一廂情愿的理想主義。我要感謝保羅?瑞安(Paul

ills can be cured through government celebration of initiative and enterprise。當(dāng)一個(gè)出身貧困的年輕女孩知道，她與任何人都享有同樣的成功機(jī)會(huì)，身為美國(guó)人，她不僅僅是在上帝眼中，而且在每一個(gè)人的眼中，她都享有自由與平等，這樣我們才算是遵守了立國(guó)的原則。We,
